Tim Gurner spent a hundred and fifty million dollars to make wellness feel like membership, and Saint Haven is the result. The Collingwood club takes its cues from Soho House, soft curves and beige calm and a marble bar you would happily drink at, then loads recovery technology behind the design. A candlelit grotto bathhouse, a two-tier cedar sauna, a Himalayan-salt mineral pool held at thirty-five degrees and an ice plunge that bites at six. Hyperbaric chambers, cryotherapy, a meditation cave for breathwork. The restaurant bans seed oils and refined sugar. Membership is capped at five hundred, and members wear Oura rings to prove the point. Extravagant, yes. Also seriously equipped. There is nothing else like it in Melbourne.
